I really had a hard time with the movie. It went so far against any logical idea of how something of this nature would play out. This isn't a science fiction movie... I think it's closer to science fantasy because it requires an intelligent audience to swallow way too much.
1. Considering how important having bodies for the war was the future put no effort in preserving their numbers, and didn't make any choices based on the need for ANYONE to survive.
2. Their weapons seemed so useless they could have benefited more from weapons or war tactics than untrained civilians.
3. The one of the largest explosion in the movie is used on ice and not to kill anything. They even raid the hive to capture one but don't bother planting any explosions to damage and he hive.(fun fact, a naval ship, a drone, or a submarine could have launched an attack on the hive without being anywhere near it right now is 2021). Despite what the scientist discovered I'd bet the best way to kill a queen would have been to blow the hives up, but no one suggests that.
4. When the scientist returns to his time with a weapon that can kill all the alien bugs literally no one cares.
5. A world that cooperates to send most of humanity to their death cannot cooperate to send a team of people to the present that may solve the problem because it could cause an international incident.
6. Wouldn't it have made more sense for the future people to travel to the past to fight the alien bugs before they were a problem? I mean imagine if they all traveled on the Sabbath to 2022( I think it was 2022 in the movie, I don't remember) and stayed looking and researching until they found the aliens... Wouldn't that have been a better idea?? I mean the Terminators are a bit more clever in their problem solving skills.
In the end it's just too much to swallow. This futuristic war takes war entirely back in time to a time where all war is fought with under-armed unprepared ground troops. All this out of a future that managed time travel. No one uses straight ground troops anymore. War is fought by air strikes, then ground troops and drone strikes are becoming more and more common. For this concept to work at the very least the war part would need to make sense. After all the name of the movie is The Tomorrow War. Even if you just accept everything they're serving to you just to try to enjoy it for what it is, there are some odd decisions. The whole interaction where the daughter is mad at her father because he in the future would leave her mother seemed like a very strange waste of time. I would think most real people if they were in that situation would understand they could keep that from ever happening. Her whole speech is given in a way as if it couldn't be undone. And she was more upset over the divorce than his death, and she didn't seem excited to see him alive again if only for seven days. How weird is that? .... The actors weren't bad... The movie was.
